My GMC Sonoma seems to be getting way less mpg than it should be, its supposed to be getting 14-16 city but it seems I’m getting less than ten. I just got my gas tank repaired due to a leak and they did somewhat of a once over in order for it to pass inspection, but i don’t know why its getting about 8 mpg. please help
